[Stratos Burst] Because the stratosphere is hella tits!

A few weeks back I came across an article that was posted on wired about MIT students that launched an edge-of-space camera for about $150. Weather balloons launched by classes and individuals is nothing new and there are a number of DIY sites and tools available on the internet. I'm totally going to do this. Not for science or peace, but because I think it is fucking awesome!

Obviously there are considerations to be made; equipment, FAA regulations, legalities, launch and landing planning, etc. I'll be blogging here as I develop what we shall title Project Stratos Burst.

Stay tuned!
